Beautiful

Firstly great service from sportsbikeshop as usual with quick response to a query. As for the lid itself it is even more beautiful in the flesh, now my 2nd Arai after previously having two other top brands of helmet in my opinion there is no better than Arai for quality and comfort ?

Great Quality
24 January 2022 by Paul D
Great delivery as with all sportsbikeshop shop goods,
The helmet is the best as per all Arai helmets are is this my 4th Arai I've tried different ones but keep coming back, this is 5 star quailty noise reduction is great, The only thing I would say is the new visor clip is a little bit fiddly with my winter gloves on having to wear glasses I steam up every time I stop (Particularly in the cold weather) so you have to lift twice second time getting your thumb under the visor, can be tricky but its a thing you get used to thats the only problem I found. I would definitely recommend

What a helmet!
06 January 2022 by Dami O
Amazing helmet. Arai's are know to be the best helmets out there and as soon as you put this lid on it's clear to see why. I have a round/oval Ish head shape and the helmet fits great. Materials and construction are top notch. My Cardo 4+ also integrates really well. Never thought I would own this helmet as the RRP isn't exactly light lol, but SBS came through with a sale offer that I couldn't resist!

Only downside is the the helmet is on the heavier side when compared to other competitors.

Excellent customer service from SBS as per usual.

Excellent Helmet
16 December 2021 by Tim C
I have had many Arai helmets over the years but this is the most comfortable one I have owned. The finish is superb, the interior is plush and is removable for cleaning. I can't give an opinion on what it's like to wear whilst on my bike due to the weather conditions ( I know, fair weather rider) but I expect it to be as good if not better than my previous Arai's.

After years with Shoei, back to Arai
28 November 2021 by Andy W
The last two helmets I've had, have both been Shoei. The original GT air which I liked for the drop down sun visor and comfort; however, for me lacked decent ventilation in the hotter weather. This followed by a Hornet ADV which was perfect for riding the GSA with it's huge screen, but even then when The riding becomes more progressive, the peak starts to become tiring.
Having done lots of research, spoken to some journalists who have done lots of miles in different helmets I narrowed it down to two. The Arai RX7V and Arai Quantic. The RX7V was price matched to an online retailer and the new Quantic full RRP. Price aside, I tried both on and the feel and fit of the more race oriented helmet won hands down for me.
I've not noticed any noise issues as some suggested, but I guess after the peak on the ADV it's not going to be huge. I've always loved Arai, but was persuaded away from them for features that at the time were important, now I'm back in the safest helmet on the market and though I need either a photocromatic insert or dark visor for when it's sunny, I know I'm well protected, have plenty of vents and the fit and comfort (for me) is secon£ to none.
Sportsbike shop were great, price matched an online company, so now should there be a problem, I can speak to real people who will work with me and the manufacturer to resolve.

Wow
05 September 2021 by Ryan
Given 5 stars because I can't give 10.

I have wanted to upgrade to an RX-7V for the longest of time. Put myself of because of the price but but the bullet and got one. Wow. What a lid.

The quality is exceptional as you would expect from Arai. The comfort of wearing this is only comparable to a cold winters night in front of the fireplace watching your favourite film with your favourite drink in your favourite pair of slippers.

Is a little bit noisy but no way unbearable. Ventilation is brilliant as well.

Usual 10/10 service from SBS.

Best looking Arai on the market
09 August 2021 by Anonymous
This is the top of the range Arai so doesn't get any better than this. The quality is superb and I know If I ever have to rely on this to protect my head it will perform without doubt. With fully custom fitting you know the fit will always be right and the killer race rep design is just mega. You have loads of vents and air flow systems and also a much easier designed visor locking and lift system too.

Amazing helmet.
19 July 2021 by Andrew P
I was looking for a new helmet and have never had an arai before. My previous helmet was an agv corsa r which was a brilliant helmet but after putting this on and now having ridden in it I can totally understand why they say once you've had an arai you won't go to anything else.

The quality is easily the best I've ever experienced in 20 years of riding. From a paint finish,construction and interior standpoint.

Yes it's definitely noticeably heavier that the corsa but once one it is so comfortable that you don't notice it. And the ventilation is incredible!! If you haven't guessed. I love this helmet

Head protection means managing impact energy. Many understand it to be about absorbing energy, but Arai believes that's just one part of impact energy management. The lower the impact energy, the less needs to be absorbed. Arai does that by making a rounder, smoother and stronger outer shells to improve Glancing Off performance and reduce impact energy transferring into the helmet. This is unique to Arai and its core philosophy.

The RX-7V EVO, is packed with seven decades of experience and is the new flagship model with proven Arai protection, combined with the ECE R22.06 approval. It's not just a new model, it's a new benchmark. ECE R22.06 requires a much more stringent testing process than the previous ECE R22.05. Arai presented the RX-7V EVO and it gained homologation while maintaining its characteristic round, smooth and strong shell design to 'glance-off' and spread impact forces. Or simply put, by being an Arai RX-7V EVO.
